Mysterious humanoid entities, a vindictive gang, and the authorities are after a young man who just came out of prison and his little brother, who is in possession of a hyper-advanced weapon.
With a heavy heart, I inform you that Kin is a solid film. So why’s that, uh? Because it tanked! And we won’t see more of it! Homage to The Terminator (1984) and Aliens (1986) (both by James Cameron), Kin flies entirely under the radar and massively underdevelops at the box office. Really shame! I would love to have watched it at the cinema as both the visual and sound effects are imposing, but I was totally oblivious to its existence. Well, I guess it would be better if it weren’t for the critics once more. You know what… I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve spoken about it.
And if you are wondering, “What are you doing then?” I’m telling you that I may be reviewing films, but it is their intentions that I criticise and I’m after. And Kin, even though flawed, it has noble intentions. It is an action/sci-fi PG-13 flick with a relatable subplot, decent action sequences, an unoriginal yet entertaining sci-fi concept, and a whole cast and crew that believes in it and gives it their all. And that includes Mogwai’s brilliant soundtrack.
